Frontend Engineer - TeachShare
About TeachShare

TeachShare is revolutionizing K-12 education for teachers with AI-powered curriculum creation tools. We're a fast-growing EdTech startup (surpassing revenue milestones, 400K+ teachers) backed by top education investors. Our platform helps teachers create differentiated, standards-aligned instructional materials in minutes instead of hours.

We're a small, high-impact-driven team of 4 full-time employees based in NYC, moving fast and shipping features that reach tens of thousands of teachers daily.

The Role

We're looking for a meticulous frontend engineer who can translate Figma designs into pixel-perfect, responsive interfaces. You'll work directly with our designer (ex-CIA, Harvard) to rapidly iterate on growth experiments and ship features that directly impact teacher retention and activation.

This isn't a typical frontend role - you'll own the entire frontend experience for a platform with 60%+ week-4 retention and be responsible for A/B testing experiments that move core metrics.

What You'll Do
  • Design Implementation: Convert Figma designs to production code with extreme attention to detail (10px vs 15px matters)

  • Growth Experiments: Ship A/B tests through PostHog, implement feature flags, and iterate based on data

  • Rapid Iteration: Work in tight cycles with our designer - design in morning, ship by EOD

  • Component Development: Build and maintain our design system using Solid.js and Tailwind

  • Performance: Ensure fast, responsive experiences across devices (many teachers use older Chromebooks)

Tech Stack
  • Frontend: Solid.js (React alternative), Tailwind CSS, TypeScript

  • State Management: Zustand (preferred), React Query for data fetching

  • Tools: PostHog (analytics/A/B testing), Figma, PNPM monorepo

  • Infrastructure: Vercel, NEON DB with branching

What We're Looking ForMust-Haves
  • Strong frontend fundamentals (HTML, CSS, JavaScript/TypeScript)

  • Experience with React or similar frameworks (we use Solid.js - easy to learn)

  • Obsessive attention to design details and spacing

  • Ability to work independently and ship fast

  • Comfortable with rapid iteration and experimentation

Nice-to-Haves
  • Experience with Solid.js, Zustand, or similar modern tools

  • A/B testing and growth experimentation background

  • Design system development experience

  • Education or impact-focused product experience

  • Familiarity with accessibility standards


Why TeachShare?
  • Impact: Your work directly helps teachers save 10+ hours/week and reach struggling students

  • Ownership: Be one of the first frontend engineers - shape our entire user experience

  • Growth: 100% week-over-week growth

  • Speed: Ship features to production daily, see immediate user feedback

  • Team: Work with exceptional engineers (ex-NASA ML, UC Berkeley dropouts, published researchers, youngest CS grad at Rutgers)

  • Mission: Help 10% of US teachers (already at 400K users) create better learning experiences

Compensation & Benefits
  • Salary: $100-180K cash, and meaningful equity (flexible for exceptional candidates)

  • Equity: Competitive early-stage equity package

  • Location: NYC-based (in-person preferred) or remote with quarterly NYC visits

  • Work Style: Async-first, results-oriented, minimal meetings

  • Growth: Clear path to senior/lead roles as we scale

Our Culture

We're a talent-dense team that values:

  • Velocity over perfection: Ship fast, iterate based on data

  • User obsession: Sub-3 minute support response times, we read every piece of feedback

  • Autonomy: Own your work end-to-end, minimal hand-holding

  • Impact: We're here to solve real problems for teachers, not just build cool tech

Timeline: We move fast - expect to hear back within 24 hours if there's a fit.
